On Aug. 27, delegates from the Korea Forest Service visited Trail Conference Headquarters to learn about public forest management practices in the United States.

Hosted by our partners at the Bergen County Park System, the visiting officials learned about the county’s tree management program, as well as the Trail Conference’s invasive species management efforts and our trail maintenance and volunteer programs. Trail Conference staff led an interpretive walk next door to Ramapo Valley County Reservation, where a stone staircase built by our Conservation Corps and volunteers was showcased.
